Adobe Stacking Begins!

Yesterday we began the stacking of adobe blocks for the first time. We are starting on the bathroom/shower room that is located next to the temple site. We made some good progress in our first day getting about 3 1/2 courses (layers) finished. If all goes well we could have the wall at full height within two weeks. Photos to come shortly. I just have to get them from David P.
